UPDATED FEB 22, 2019

NBC's yet another heartwarming family drama will come to our screens on March 19 and will take us on a hell of an emotional journey. 'The Village', which is largely being compared to NBC's hit 'This Is Us', will establish itself in its own way, we hope, because the characters we've been introduced to so far, just feel like a warm bunch of people we would love to get acquainted with.

Starting from Sarah Campbell, played by 'One Tree Hill' alum, Michaela McManus, who told MEA World Wide (MEAWW) that it was a joy to play the role of Sarah. A nurse and a single mother, her "greatest focus in life", and the thing she’s most proud of, "is raising her daughter Katie". In Michaela's words, Sarah is "tough, independent and resilient with an open heart. She’s someone who has to work really hard to support herself and her daughter and I think that makes her a character a lot of people can relate to."
